Testing oVirt...

 -more info to come- Hardware: SuperMicro SYS-2017TR-HTRF: using 3 of 4 nodes, each node has 2x CPU Intel Xeon 2620 64gb RAM o/s disk: 64gb SATADOM Gluster Storage: 6x STEC 400GB SAS SSD Gluster Storage network: 10GB

 Do not: - use special characters in any of your passwords - letters & numbers only.
- hosted engine vm - assign static IP, no dhcp reservation.
 
- 
 Plan to start loading up some vm's (in the next few days) 
 Will also like to test some backup & restore products.

 Well they finally updated their user interface with Patternfly. The old one was pretty bad.

 That’s pretty bad security for not allowing special characters, maybe not spaces either?

 That’s pretty bad security for not allowing special characters, maybe not spaces either? Tower has that restriction too for a certain password. I think it's the RabbitMQ password. If it's long enough I don't see it making much difference.

If it's long enough I don't see it making much difference. Maybe, but again not sure the reasoning why the no special character especially if it is used in other languages.

Oh sure I agree it should be supported but a 30 character 3 case password is more secure than a 12 character 4 case. I did a quick search and it looks like you have to manually escape the special characters.

 Is this an all in one?

 @stacksofplates Are you asking about the hardware or the oVirt setup?

- 
 Any real advantage vs plain KVM?

 @francesco-provino said in Testing oVirt...: Any real advantage vs plain KVM? oVirt is more in line with RHEV. If all you want to do is run VMs, a plain KVM setup is a simple.

 @francesco-provino This is a 3 + 1 node hyperconverged cluster with Gluster, HA, Live Migration etc!

 Very good more pics and stuff please, did you face any hosts disconnections I faced that alot

 @fateknollogee said in Testing oVirt...: @francesco-provino This is a 3 + 1 node hyperconverged cluster with Gluster, HA, Live Migration etc! That's what I was wondering. I didn't know if it was a self hosted engine (couldn't think of the name last night) or multiple node setup.
